Unwed Fathers (feat. Liz Isenberg)

歌詞

In an Appalachian, Greyhound station She sits there waiting, in a family way Goodbye brother, tell Ma I love her Tell all the others that I'll write someday From an teenage lover to an unwed mother Kept undercover like some bad dream While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered They run like water through a mountain stream In a cold and gray town, a nurse says lay down This ain't no playground and this ain't home Someone's children out having children In a gray stone building, all alone From an teenage lover to an unwed mother Kept undercover like some bad dream While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered They run like water through a mountain stream Somewhere else bound, Smokey Mountain Greyhound She bows her head down, singing lullabies Your daddy never meant to hurt you ever He just don't live here but you've got his eyes From an teenage lover to an unwed mother Kept undercover like some bad dream While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered They run like water, through a mountain stream Oh, they run like water through a mountain stream
